Hi! You have a B450 mortar with a Ryzen 5 5600X and 16GB RAM. Your current RAM is only 2400MHz, so you're looking to upgrade for better performance in gaming and programming. You're considering either 32GB or sticking with 16GB. For gaming and multitasking, 32GB would be ideal to avoid bottlenecks. If you aim for a speed of around 3200MHz, that's a solid target. Just make sure the RAM sticks are compatible with your system.

I suggest 2x 16GB for general use unless you're extremely frugal. How fast you need it depends on personal preference, but I think speeds around 3200 are usually fine. Stability tends to be a bigger concern than raw speed, especially beyond that range. The exact choice between dual and single rank likely matters more than speed or CAS.
